Re: [LegacyUG] uploading trees to Ancestry
Information such as you wanted included, apparently are meant to be indicated by saved information from Ancestry.

Re: [LegacyUG] uploading trees to Ancestry
I'm probably dense..not sure I follow Elizabeth. At the present my tree is set to private at least until I get it tweaked the way I want. Are you saying that all public trees show up on Rootsweb World Connect and that more of the information would be showing there?

RE: [LegacyUG] uploading trees to Ancestry
I assume that you are talking about the paid subscription service of Ancestry.com. I would think that there must be something wrong with either your data format uploaded or perhaps some other configuration issue. I know that Ancestry’s free servers at World Connect / RootsWeb perfectly show event notes uploaded via GEDCOMs created in Legacy with no problems. Maybe one of those that spend their money at Anecestry.com can comment further.

Re: [LegacyUG] uploading trees to Ancestry
Yes, I was talking about the main Ancestry site which charges. I have avoided using it, but having knowing there was some pictures of my husband's 2nd great grandfather and others available I decided to take advantage of a special and buy a short subscription. I've seen lots of notes on World Connect. That is why I was surprised that they don't show up on Ancestry.com On Thu, Jul 11, 2013 at 3:39 PM, Eliz Hanebury elizhg...@gmail.com wrote: If you upload to World Connect, all the events etc show up there.
